Hi all,

I am having trouble with my athena shifters, when i pull the brake on the right sifter while riding it starts to rattle. If I let go of the shifter it stops and it doesn't do it on the other side.

Any suggestions on how to fix?

    1) It is a Campagnolo feature that affects half of the shifters

    2) There is nothing you can do to fix it, been there, done that...

    3) A rubber band around the brake lever cures the symptom

    Sorry I think i missed something here, it's coming from within the shifter housing not the leaver on the outside

    It sounds like it is. Campagnolo levers have previous with regard to rattling; give Ugo's suggestion a go. At the very least, it will rule that out.

    My rear calliper wasn't fully returning so creating this rattle.

    I went posh and put shrink wrap on the lever for the pro campag finish lol
